Citations for books typically include:
* name of author(s)
* title of book
* volume when appropriate
* name of publisher
* place of publication
* date of publication of the edition
* chapter or page numbers cited, if appropriate
* edition, if not the first edition

Some edited books have individually authored chapters. Citations for these chapters are recommended. They typically include:
*name of author(s)
*title of the chapter
*name of book's editor
*name of book and other details as above
*chapter number or page numbers for the chapter (optional)

In some instances, the [[Recto and verso|verso]] of a book's title page may record, "Reprinted with corrections XXXX" or similar, where "XXXX" is a year. This is a different version of a book in the same way that different editions are different versions. Note this in your citation. See {{sectionlink||Dates and reprints}} for further information.
